Just after midnight we moved off, our brigade separating from the rest of the coiumand. Follow- ing byroads in the direction of Sycamore Church, where the enemy was encountered about 5 A. M. , behind barricades and armed with the Winchester repeating rifle. Company B had the front. A charge of the Twelfth Virginia was ordered, and gallantly executed. The enemy fought stubbornly for a short time, but finally broke and fled in confusion, leaving his dead and wounded on the field and his camp in o...ur hands. Having routed the enemy, our brigade pressed on to its cattle corral near by and captured the whole herd of beef cattle, numbering 2, 486. This, the object of our expedition, being accomplished, and our litle force being far in General Grant's rear, we began our retreat, driving before us this immense herd. In our brigade were quite a number of cow- boys, not of the Texas or Western sort, but real Virginia cow- boys, who knew the habits and dispositions of cattle, and these managed this large drove with skill and dexterity.
